Live Notetaker Info
Thank you for volunteering to take live notes at GHC! We’ve asked you and others to take notes on the conference to supplement the information gathered and distributed in the conference proceedings. Here is a run-down of the steps you need to take to post your notes to the GHC06 wiki.
Before your assigned session(s):
- Create an account for this wiki
- Login
- Create a page for your notes
- Title it GHC 2006 Live Notes: <NAME OF SESSION>
- Link the page you just created from this page
During Your Assigned Session(s):
- Login
- Take notes
- Mark up your text along the way, or at the very end
- Save and edit regularly to avoid accidentally losing your work
After Your Assigned Session(s)
- Come back to this page to verify the link to your page is working
- Read through your notes and make edits, as appropriate
Your Notes
There is no wrong way to take notes for the conference. Give them in whatever style or format you find helpful. You may want to read the session summary, abstract, or paper in advance of the session, so you can make every attempt possible to record information not already captured in other conference documents.
Author information
At the beginning of your notes please indicate you are live notetaker for the conference. Give the following signature: <Your Name>, GHC 2005 Live Notetaker.
You are invited to add other information to the signature. For example you may want to sign <Your Name>, GHC 2006 Live Notetaker. I also blog at <url of your other blogs or websites>.
Tagging
We ask that you tag each of your notes with “ghc06”. It will help conference participants to find your notes during and after the conference. You may add any other tags you believe relate to the session.
